My favorite part of the game was killing Laura. I was shocked at how graphic it was. I had a similar experience with The Walking Dead. Shocking enough that I couldn't believe what I just saw and it made me laugh my ass off after the shock wore off. Tree branch through the gut, Arrows through the knee and neck. Pinging skull off underwater rocks, 3" pipe through jaw out the back of her head, wolf ripping throat out....good grief that was entertaining. At least for a few minutes.

Then, alas, I had to stop torturing poor Laura and get on with the quests.

It's probably just an awkward keybind you have set up for it. Try something different. Even with an optimal (personal preference) keybind it will take a few times before your comfortable with it. My middle mouse button is pooched but I was still able to play without it as I have two more auxiliary buttons on it.

Most of my settings are as follows if you want to try this and or modify. I find it the most intuitive use of the keyboard and mouse this way:

I sure like the storytelling in this game, I think it beats Farcry3 for me. But the QTE and sometimes annoying camera controls is what bothers me, that and the "push the stick forward like a console game" parts. Only maybe halfway thru now, it looks and runs great.

I don't remember a game that was this much fun to experience, it's actually hard to stop and get away from it. I guess that's why this thread is 7 pages long. Aside from the cons we've posted earlier, this is one of the most enjoyable titles in my collection. Replay value must be quite low, I'm guessing, once you've collected all the items, some of which are kind of a pain in the ass to find!

Yea, I haven't gone back to it and I really only need a couple items to get 100% completion. But that said I really enjoyed the game and thought they did an excellent job on it. Actually I would say that this is the most I have ever enjoyed a Tomb Raider game.
